NBL25 season review - Hyrum Harris

After starting for the majority of his debut season as a Perth Wildcat, the recruitment of ex-NBA sharpshooter Dylan Windler saw him become an impact player off the bench.

The popular New Zealander still made his presence felt in season two with his trademark hustle, rebounding, defensive plays and ability to free up teammates and better others around him.

The standout performance out his second season in red came against Tasmania JackJumpers on January 12, when he scored a dozen points to go with five rebounds and two assists in a little under 17 minutes.

While it was his only double-digit points contribution, Harris had plenty of eye-catching games on the glass.

The hard-working forward had three or more rebounds in 11 of his 28 appearances last season including a season-high seven to go with three blocks against Cairns on October.

He also tallied six against the JackJumpers on October 6 and five in the season-opening win over SEM Phoenix in a strong start to the campaign.

Injuries to fellow forward Windler and Kristian Doolittle throughout the season saw Harris’ minutes increase at various parts of NBL25.

He averaged 10.9 minutes per game last season for a touch under three points and 2.2 rebounds.
